Not really sure how dualbooting or vms work at their core. I’m kind of over windows and want to swap, always liked the customizability aspect and have been using Linux more and more for self hosting purposes. Was wondering if I setup linux on my external ssd using a vm if I could change it from vm to a dualboot drive after I’m done setting it up. That way I could setitup and swap to it while keepign my original ssd with my windows install,. and not have to deal with dualbooting and going back and forth while setting up?

Can I make a vm of my current windows machine backup and run that in a linux setup?

    Stuttering is present in SteamVR due to lack of async reprojection. Thats why I’m using Envision which is an interface for a stack of a bunch of different open source VR stuff.

    It’s quite a bit more finicky and fragile, but it at least has reprojection.

      Is there an easy Guide? Would love to play around with it on Arch Linux with Wayland KDE

        https://lvra.gitlab.io/ is a good start.

        Some stuff you’ll have to mess around with.

        I’ve found that some random issues like unexpected frame stutter or VR headset not being detected need a full power off of everything to fix sometimes. (Power off / disconnected. Reboots don’t work)
